## Abstract Interstitial deletions of 10q are rare, and only one patient with a deletion confined to chromosome band 10q22 has been reported so far. We report on a 2 6/12‐year‐old girl with a constitutional interstitial deletion of one homologue of 10q [karyotype: 46,XX,del(10)(q22.2q22.3)de novo].

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
We describe the case of a 6‐month‐old boy with psychomotor retardation, craniofacial dysmorphism, cleft lip and palate, as well as hearing and visual impairment. Analysis of G‐banded chromosomes of the propositus showed a de novo interstitial deletion of the short arm of chromosome 12, del(12)(p12.1p12.3). Molecular cytogenetic analysis with bacterial artificial chromosomes (BAC) clones was used to refine the extent of the deletion. The deleted segment encompasses about 12.5 Mb between markers D12S1832 and G62375. The phenotypic consequences of the deletion are discussed and compared with other cases of interstitial deletions of proximal chromosome 12p. © 2002 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Using fluorescence in situ hybridization and microsatellite analysis, we have characterized a de novo interstitial deletion on the long arm of chromosome 6 [46,XX,del(6) (q23.3q24.2)] in a developmentally normal girl with very mild phenotypic abnormalities. The deletion was paternal in origin and wa
Interstitial deletions are relatively rare chromosomal anomalies that usually arise de novo. The data describing the phenotype associated with interstitial deletions of 5q are very limited. We describe the first case of multiple fetal anomalies, diagnosed on prenatal sonographic examination, associa
